Liver Disease in Pediatric Patients With Ataxia Telangiectasia: A Novel Report. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26594831 Weiss B, Krauthammer A, Soudack M, Lahad A, Sarouk I, Somech R, Heimer G, Ben-Zeev B, Nissenkorn A. Liver Disease in Pediatric Patients With Ataxia Telangiectasia: A Novel Report. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr. 2016 Apr; 62(4):550-5. Abstract OBJECTIVE: Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a rare genetic multiorgan disease. Although gastrointestinal involvement is known, hepatic involvement in A-T has not been investigated. We aimed to study the hepatic involvement in a large cohort of patients with A-T. METHODS: A retrospective review of patients, studied from January 1986 to January 2015 at a National A-T Center. Clinical data including demographic, genetic, laboratory, nutritional, radiographic, and histological data were retrieved.
